• Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and diagnosis
At Metamorphic Psychiatry, Dr. Anthony Duk offers compassionate, individualized care for people struggling with personality disorders and related emotional or interpersonal challenges. From our office in Corona del Mar, we serve patients throughout Newport Beach, Irvine, Costa Mesa, Laguna Beach, and the greater Orange County area, helping individuals understand their emotions, improve relationships, and rediscover their God-given worth.
Understanding Personality Disorders
Personality disorders involve long-standing patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving that can cause distress or conflict in personal, social, or professional life. They may include conditions such as borderline, narcissistic, dependent, obsessive-compulsive, or avoidant personality disorder.
People with these conditions often struggle with self-image, emotional regulation, trust, or relationships — yet beneath those challenges lies a deep longing to be understood, accepted, and healed. With the right guidance and treatment, lasting change and inner peace are possible.
A Catholic Perspective on Healing and Dignity
As a Catholic psychiatrist, Dr. Anthony Duk views every person as made in the image and likeness of God. No diagnosis can erase that truth. Each individual, no matter how woun
ded or reactive, carries inherent dignity and the potential for renewal.
At Metamorphic Psychiatry, we help patients replace destructive patterns with self-awareness, patience, and forgiveness — both for themselves and others. Faith becomes a powerful ally in recovery, guiding the soul toward humility, responsibility, and hope.
Through the union of psychiatry and spirituality, we aim to heal not just behaviors, but the heart beneath them.
• Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation and diagnosis
• Medication management when clinically appropriate
• Collaboration with therapists, priests, and spiritual directors
• Education and guidance for families seeking to understand loved ones’ behaviors
• Faith-based encouragement that fosters resilience and meaning
We emphasize steady progress, self-compassion, and the formation of healthier, more loving relationships.
